I suppose it could, but it doesn't, not even close. It rotates about once in 27.3 days.
The number of times the earth rotates "under the moon" is the same asthe number of times you see the moon cross your street or your drivewayin 24 hours.It's 26.32 times in 27.32 days. That averages out to 0.9634 times in 24 hours. (rounded)
The Earth rotates in 1 day. The moon takes 27.32 days to rotate.
Gas planets typically rotate faster than Earth. For example, Jupiter rotates the quickest with a day length of about 10 hours, Saturn has a day length of about 10.7 hours, Uranus about 17 hours, and Neptune about 16 hours. In comparison, Earth rotates once every 24 hours.
The Moon goes around the Earth every 29 days 12 hours and 44 minutes on average.
The Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, resulting in day and night cycles. The Moon also rotates on its axis, but it takes about 27.3 days to complete a full rotation, so we always see the same side of the Moon from Earth.
The Moon rotates once every 24 hours
Once every 24 hours
Earth's moon does rotate on it's axis but it does it once each orbit of the Earth: every 27.3 days .
no. it does not but it does go around every 27.3 days
No it take 243 Earth days.
No 24 hrs, 39 mins.

No. The Moon rotates synchronously - its rotational period is the same as its orbital period. So the same face of the Moon is always visible. Since it takes the Moon about 27 days to orbit the Earth once, that's also the time it takes for the Moon to rotate once.
No. The moon rotates once for every orbit it makes around Earth.
The Earth orbits the Sun once every 365.25 days. The Earth spins on its axis once in 24 hours.
Once every 24 hours, or to be more precise, exactly one time in 23 hours 56 minutes.
Uranus rotates on it's axis approximately every 24 and 37 minutes.
